Review: PA2V2 Headphone Amplifier

I bought myself an iPod classic 160GB last year so that I could store a huge collection of music and still be portable. The iPod really came through and met my expectation ..... except for one thing..... the volume. The sound quality itself is great, don't get me wrong but I felt that the volume was too low. I started browsing the interwebs for an portable amplifier and found >> Gary at Electric Avenues.


By plugging your headphones into this PA2V2 amp instead of directly into your music player, you will help them to reach their full potential. Not only does it make the music louder, but more importantly the amp creates deeper, more powerful bass and clearer high frequencies at all volume levels but would it increase the volume on my iPod? Here are my thoughts:

The Good


The Sound. It actually works. The volume actually got louder and the sound quality got a boost as well. I got really surprised.

The battery life. The PA2V2 Headphone Amplifier runs with 2 AA batteries and will fully charged run for 100 hours!!! How about that?

AC Adapter included. Along with the Amp you will receive an AC adapter for recharging the batteries or if you just want to run the amp at home though the socket.

Audio cable included. You will also receive an Audio cable which you'll need to connect to your device.

The size. It's pretty small and you'll have no problem bringing it with you.

The price. Only $56 or 410SEK and free worldwide shipping!!!

The Bad


Nothing much to say here other than being a high volume freak, I would have asked for a bit more volume.

Conclusion


If you're looking to boost your music devices then the PA2V2 Headphone Amplifier is your answer. With a low price and long lasting battery life it's a no brainer, you simply need to buy it. Gary at  Electric Avenues is incredibly kind and helpful. I didn't recieve my first copy I ordered (probably got lost somewhere in the world through the mail) so Gary send me a new one and arrived a few days later. Now that's what we call a guy who's service minded.

Score 9 out of 10
